Bondage and role-play are not just tying someone up or trying to pretend to be somebody else; they are a matter of fantasy and perception (among other things, wink*). There are times where a fantasy might look incredible on paper but when you actually get to perform it, it’s actually not that great as it sounded. And the opposite of that also happens, sometimes you go into a scenario where you are not expecting much and end up being not only surprised, but wildly excited about the new tricks you've learned!Before going into any kind of play, it’s important to understand that some things work for some, but not others, because both situations are just fine. Think about it like an exploration or a journey, you don’t necessarily know how will it be or will it turn out, the only thing you know is that you want to be there. You may want to go back again (a LOT), you may prefer to just have that one experience or you might decide to make a few changes here and there or... well, the possibilities, just like your imagination, are limitless!

In order for you guys to enjoy this erotic journey, you should make sure about some things. For example, the person who will be doing the tying up (whether the lucky one is you or your partner) will have to know what they are doing. It doesn’t matter if it’s rope, some sexy bondage gear or whatever you have lying around; the important thing is the dominant party needs to have knowledge about the techniques and safety measures. They should also know how to act during an emergency, just in case something goes wrong. The passive or submissive should trust their partner knows how to handle any different situations that may arise; besides, they are putting themselves in the hands of the other. The fact they are putting that much trust in the other person should be enough incentive for the dominant to step it up and learns! Wink.

Remember that bondage cannot be taken lightly, joints can be bent in positions they shouldn’t, tendons can be pulled, ligaments can be turned and bruises - only sometimes unwanted - can tell the tale of your passions, so be sure to play safe and not make your friends jealous. Remember every person is different so just because you have tried and done this position numerous times with somebody else without any issues, it can be completely different with others. Keep in mind we are not made out of the same molds! Wink*. So always tread carefully, especially with a new partner and never go too far without being certain. A masterful dominant

Once we have gotten that out of the way, we can focus on the general bondage ambient and setting. This is very important because the whole scene will depend on it; how erotic and exciting the whole experience will be, it will be mostly in part of the atmosphere. In order to create the right scene, you may want to start with the right soundtrack for your particular scenario. It will depend on the scenario and the vibe you want to create; it can be some ambient and instrumental track to provide comfort and relaxation. If you want something more intense, maybe rock songs will be more appropriate. On the other hand, if you are practicing Shibari, some oriental music might be perfect. And not just Asian music, but Arabian and indian songs also work nicely (it makes It more exotic wink*). Keep in mind what activities you will be performing and try to imagine the rhythm in which you will be performing them. This will give you an idea for the right tempo you want to use; imagine using a flogger and giving the slaps with the beat or dropping hot wax in your partner’s body at the pulse of the song.

And then we can tackle the other senses. You can stimulate the smell with some nice fragrances. This can be achieved with incense, perfumes, oils and special hot wax play candles. In my opinion candles are great because they also take care of the lighting. Because, as you may imagine, illumination is very important to create the right mood. You can experiment with candles of different colors, like red (they create a very sensual atmosphere, lovers) A candle doesn’t have to be always white!

The combination and stimulation of the senses will help you create the right atmosphere. Now, all you got left is touch. And I’m sure you already know exactly how to play that out, wink*.
